\\ ABOUT "RHYTHMS OF TOF MIRIAM" \\
One of the few female frame drummers on the world stage today, Grammy-nominated Marla Leigh celebrates the inseparable nature of spirituality and music with her long-awaited debut album and music video: "Rhythms of Tof Miriam."
At its core, "Rhythms of Tof Miriam" is about staying positive through challenging times by using the universal language of rhythm to help us rediscover our genuine connections. Marla reflects, “The Tof Miriam experience is timeless but fresh, spicy and rich, comforting yet mysterious. I want to encourage listeners to reorient themselves - internally and externally - with the therapeutic effects of music.”
The album’s title track, "Rhythms of Tof Miriam", also features a music video that was filmed in the ancient lands of the Negev Desert in Israel, near the Mediterranean Sea. Under the aesthetic, expert eye of Israeli cinematographer, Noam Chojnowski, dramatic scenery and entrancing drum rhythms blend together perfectly. The video also features world-renowned dancers Zola Dubnikova and Lalita Devi.
"Rhythms of Tof Miriam" is a homage to the Prophetess Miriam, who led the Israelites on their journey to freedom during the parting of the Red Sea. The title track is broken into two sections: The Pilgrimage and Freedom. To reflect the long voyage, The Pilgrimage is composed of rhythms in a very long time-cycle (35-beat). It also features a “call-and-response” dialogue between the drums, interwoven with heartwarming melodies of the ney and oud, signaling hopeful communication. The second section, Freedom, represents the pivotal moment when the Sea of Reeds parted, the Israelites were freed and Miriam played her frame drum (referred to then as the timbrel). Listeners are invited to revel in the present moment, celebrating life and purpose.
We hope you enjoy the OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO for Marla’s debut single, "Rhythms of Tof Miriam".
This video was made with the support of Marla’s successful crowdfunding campaign!

Thank you dear Sister of Music! One day, love to do a video with you!
Marla, this brought tears to my eyes. Seeing you playing the ancient Tof Miriam in the Judean Hills (I believe), of Israel, so dear to me. And, after studying the frame drum with you and falling in love with it, this was the most perfect expression of your love and passion for the drum, the music and bringing forth the energy of the women who walked before you there on that sacred ground. I loved this so much and look forward to more!
DEBRA~ Thank you so much. You were surely with me in spirit! I hope to share the TOF with you in Israel one day!
OMG❤️ Congratulations Marla! ❤️ I love it. It's a divine combination of Beauty, Magic, Mystic and Sound, flowing through you, the Goddess. Everything is so gorgeous and harmonious, you, the dancers, the drums, the environment, the light, the colors, the music, the filming, I'm so happy for you that you could fulfill your dream in honor to Miriam,❤️🙋🏼♀️

Ever since I was a new student at Frame Drum Academy, I've been hearing about your dream to come to Israel to do this project. And here you go.... It's delicious -- both the music and the visuals. Congratulations, Marla!!
Awe, and TODA for all your help with this vision. For those reading, I am plaing Laary's drum in the video . its the beautiful BLUE one towards the end of the video! :)
@@MarlaLeigh This made me chuckle... Yay, my drum is famous. :)
Wow. Great playing and production (audio and video)! Liked the juxtaposition of the dancer's white veil and the lone seagull. Also dug how that full moon morphed into the campfire pit.
Yah! So glad you enjoyed it, drum brothah!
Love ❤

On UA-cam, one can find a lot of so-called ASMRs, that are supposed to stimulate the central neural system to give you chills.
No ASMR can surpass such visceral and intense music. It gave me profound chills. Chapeaux Marla
Still loving this 🙏
Oh, Marla! This is beyond breath taking, beyond inspiring, beyond the beyond! Mazel tov! Our ancestors are smiling upon you, you've brought all of us so much closer to The Ancient Ones, and them to us... The threads that connect us all, are now stronger, thanks to you. Thank you for developing and sharing your gifts. Thank you for giving voice to your heart, your hands, your drums. Thank you for honoring and giving voice and imagery to Miriam the Prophetess, Miriam the Frame Drummer! I love you forever!
Incredible deep and magical Journey! Thank you so much! 🙏🌅
Amazing in every way possible. The drumming, scenery, the fire, all coming together to remember when women were drummers 6:34
So beautifully done, Marla! We applaud you, standing, Jeff and I both. What an important and potent project. It's perfect!

Beautiful and inspiring! This made my day.
Glad you enjoyed it!
As I return to my jewish heritage, I feel these beats so strongly. Perfect thing at the perfect time!! Cant wait to hear the while things, thank you marla!!
Thank you for listening and feeling the beat so strongly! :)
I feel you so much on this! I am also connecting back to my jewish roots. My family rejected a lot of the culture to survive during Stalin’s reign. And I am getting back now. And this music just speaks to me. I picked up the frame drum a while back without knowing the significance
I am returning too there is so much us Christians have forsaken from our true heritage as descendants of Abraham
Τhank you Marla! It's so divine! Have you e lessons?
@@newtoatheism5968 Lol what?
The video looks beautiful, such a magical and mysterious place to be in. And the drums sound relly good. Congratulations and good luck!
